Well, in this case there are a Lumber of issues that have to be Looked at. First, there is the question of Business performance itself. Is it really going to be worthwhile for this company to take parto f its Business offshore? There is not much doubt-it will be cheaper at least in the short-term. But there is a downside and that could produce some surprises for any company. The image of the company may well suffer as a result of a decision to offshore, and the potential impact of that is difficult to measure. We´ve already seen that sort of thing happening and some companies have even had to bring back work that they had outsourced.This, of course, could be made worse by union industrial action. Other problems down the line? Well, when you offshore a critical part our you bussines , your really have to have a fall back strategy if something goes disastrously wrong.this could be wath we call "multi-shoring", where you have and alternative service provider in another country you can switch to if things go wrong.

That way, if there is a major appreciation in wages or foreigh currency, a dispute with your local provider or any sort of instability, you are not in danger.So you know, i think that if i were being asked to choose a dstination for an outsourcing operation, I would advise the company to think very carefully about "multi-shoring" that way they can minimise the risks and transfers operation to another destination i something goes wrong.

OECD welcomes the co-ordinated efforts of political leaders and financial authorities to address issues of liquidity, solvency and recapitalisation of the financial system. Looking beyond crisis management, Mr Gurría said the OECD will focus on the structural implications of the financial crisis, including a more holistic culture of risk management, compensation issues, accountable management, and more effective regulation. “We will also make proposals for improved financial education and risk awareness to restore the confidence of consumers of financial services,” he added.

Speaking on the occasion of an annual report to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe on the outlook for the world economy, OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría spoke about the impact of the financial crisis and OECD's work to produce a more inclusive globalisation.

This paper analyses the determinants of structural unemployment rates in a two-stage approach. First, time-varying NAIRUs are estimated for a panel of OECD economies on the basis of Phillips curve equations using Kalman filter techniques. In a second stage, the estimated NAIRUs are regressed on selected policy and institutional variables.

The number of unemployed in OECD countries is expected to rise by about 8 million people over the next two years as the most serious recession since the early 1980s takes it toll on economic activity, according to the latest OECD Economic Outlook.

The main challenges facing the Spanish economy are to minimise the economic costs of the current downturn, move workers shed to new jobs, and to raise sustainable productivity growth including by improving human capital formation and competition in product markets.
